This is what I have currently been up to lately. I’ve been reviving a webcomic, catching up on old webcomics and still studying and practising 2D animation. Mostly I’m taking some time off learning to paint and do webcomics. Software used was Clip Paint Studio EX. In all 3 videos.

Any questions, just comment and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible!

This is for Photoshop Elements 7.0

Writing is huuuuge because I didn’t know what it would be like when it got downsized

Mostly random tips and very short in description. Quite possibly not helpful… hope not. But if you have questions or want a better explanation please ask in a comment. If you need a picture to go with it I will grab a screenshot no worries!!

If you have scanned in your lineart please go to the gimp video link below and separate your line art to make it easier for you. If it’s to complicated for you, change the layer blending mode to Multiply and keep it at the top.

I was watching this video and now I use the plugin in the youtube description rather than colourhalftone simply because it’s better, easier and has a wider range of tone sizes that you can create and takes out a lot of tediousness:[link]

If I don’t do it there then I go to GIMP and use newsprint in distorts under the filters tab. I wrote a tutorial here on how to do that: [link]

How to install the plugin:
Go to C: drive, Programs, find the folder Adobe, go to the version of photoshop you have, I have photoshop elements 7.0 so that’s the folder I go into. This plugin works in pse7. When you are in go to the folder labelled plugins open, go to filters folder, open and paste the plug-ins there. If you have photoshop open already, save your work, close, re-open and it will be working and located all the way down the bottom of the filters list.

Well I decided to brave it and upload to youtube. I decided that an art Vlog is best for me. If people can learn from it then awsome, if not then that’s ok as well. I’m actually using it as a bit of a practise so I can make a foot drawing tutorial for a friend. Youtube just seems so fail safe when it comes to video uploads. I’ve had issues with FB and my own website (TT^TT) as far as video upload goes so yeah, wish me luck.

In the video below, I was playing with ComicWorks and now I want to save up for the latest one 8D I really really want it but sadly it will have to wait till after all this dental crap is done.
